In that context, "whom" is the direct object, which is appropriate use.<br /><br />The first "whom" is indeed incorrect, as it is a relative pronoun acting as the subject in that clause, and "who" should be used when it is the subject.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12328892208283348655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574198575168538104.post-26091947048433362462014-03-26T22:44:17.466-05:002014-03-26T22:44:17.466-05:00Welcome back after quite a hiatus. An interesting ...Welcome back after quite a hiatus. An interesting monastery diary in spite of your misuse of “whom.” ("Before entering, we had a reunion of sorts with two of the founding members of our schola whom had since moved to greener pastures, and whom I hadn't seen in a few years”). “Who" is proper here, not “whom.” This is a minor flaw that you can edit.<br /><br />The following is memorable, indeed beautiful writing:<br /> <br />"In a moment frozen in time, I united my prayer with the brothers, and with those of all the monks of the past two thousand years that had implored God with those very same chants to help raise up a sturdy foundation in the face of Viking invasions, plagues, famines, rapacious kings, bloodthirsty revolutions, and all other manner of terrors and tribulations more frightening than our own. I was at once a small speck in the great march of time from the cross to the final judgement.... and yet larger than life, speaking with one voice in an army larger than any empire's or proletariat's in the history of man. For a moment, I shed a tear for the beauty of what I had witnessed, for all we had lost, and for what these monks could build for themselves and future generations in the new world".Michael Hoffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09485741729327325322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574198575168538104.post-34246615298844280822014-03-23T23:40:53.403-05:002014-03-23T23:40:53.403-05:00Thank you for this post!
